The Status of Suzumiya Haruhi- Prologue

((DISCLAIMER: I do not own anything in regards to Suzumiya Haruhi))

"The meddling of the Canopy Domain with Suzumiya Haruhi and Sasaki has become more prominent than before. The Canopy Domain is leaning towards Sasaki as the time warp originator instead of Suzumiya Haruhi. Although the two do possess extraordinary powers, the Canopy Domain and the Integrated Data Sentient Entity cannot comply with what each one demands from each other. Therefore a rift has separated the two factions from communicating further." A long pause fell between the two of us as I tried to take in everything Nagato had just said. Demands? What the…?

We sat in the middle of the living room in Nagato's brand new apartment, conversing over tea. Although the atmosphere was just about the same as when I first visited Nagato at her first apartment, things were out of place. There was… paint? There was definitely a bigger difference between the two places. First off, this one had more color. From what Nagato said, the landlord insisted on repainting the rooms for her. I don't know much about colors, but this one had a blue-ish tinge to it. Maybe sky blue? Agh, who cares. It's not like I'm going to be an interior designer someday. She even put in some plants. New furniture was also added as well. How does Nagato get money for this stuff anyways? Amazingly, her books survived the fire along with the laptop computer. They sat in a neat little pile against the wall waiting to be organized on a new book shelf carried in by the landlord. This lady's too nice to her tenants in my opinion. But it doesn't concern me. What's bugging me at the moment is all this information Nagato's giving me. What'd she say again?

"The Integrated Data Sentient Entity believes that the Canopy Domain will try and force us into cooperation. Hence forth we will be under supervision." Huh? So that's what the whole thing with Kuyoh was about?

"Yes," she replied simply.

"What are they trying to make you do?" I asked, completely lost at this point.

"Eradicate Suzumiya Haruhi." Whaaaat?

I trudged up the hill side on my way to school in a state of confusion and hopelessness. It didn't help that I didn't get much sleep the night before. Normally I would want to get this journey over with as quickly as possible, but today it can take as long as needed. It's not like I dreaded seeing Haruhi today, I was just afraid that my acting skills would be blown away and she'd start interrogating me. It'd be even worse if she's in a foul mood this morning. They want to kill Haruhi? What does it matter if she's here or not? I mean… why get rid of her? It's not like she's interfering with Sasaki and everything. Is she? That girl does so much unconsciously, there should be a warning label on her saying, 'Warning! Will go off at the slightest intake of breath!' Everyone should have a bomb shelter under their houses. At that moment, a shout rang out and I looked behind me to see Taniguchi wave happily.

"Yo! Kyon!" he said, coming into step with me. "Did you finish your homework last night?" As a matter of fact, I didn't. "Geez. At this rate you'll never graduate. I'll ask Kunikida for some answers then. See ya." That's all you have to say? At least I can go back to my thoughts.

I entered the classroom to find Haruhi already situated in her seat, gazing intently out of the window. I couldn't see her eyes, but they must be shimmering with some sort of excitement. Dumping my bag onto my desk, I kept my face towards the front of the classroom.

"I had a strange dream last night… I dreamt that the rivers and plants turned different shades of black and grey." She said, still staring out the window. "And I kept knocking on this huge gothic door, asking to be let in."

Sorry, can't interpret dreams for you.

"I wasn't asking you to," she said, turning to glare at the back of my head. "What's wrong with you? You sound strange." At that moment, my savior for today, Okabe-sensei, came in and started class. What he was talking about, I have no idea. My mind kept wandering to one thing though. Haruhi sure is popular isn't she?

((Bahaha! My second fanfic! It took me a while to figure out how to start this one out but I've got it! And I've got a vague idea of what's in store for the SOS Brigade. Kukuku… I had the perfect name for this fanfic too but I forgot it. Grr. So I named it this. Seems to fit pretty well though. This fanfic starts off from where my first one ended. Yay! Now I really should go off and do my homework… sadness. Oh and the little bit about the dream is referenced towards a book I listened to years ago. It was written by Terry Pratchett(his last name is always hard to spell) but I can't remember the name. All I can remember is that the area that Death lives in is in different shades of black, grey, and white. Huhuhu spookeh. Enjoy! Look out for Chapter 1!))
